Fifteen teenager from a rural
Moroccan town of Sidi Kacemhave have been treated for rabies after reportedly
raping an infected local donkey.
The infected boys spent a week at
the Mechraa Belksiri Hospital receiving treatments after they contracted the
disease from the animal.
According to Morocco World News,
the number of boys who raped the donkey were more than 15, but many families
secretly took their sons for treatment at hospitals outside the immediate area
to avoid shame.
Only 15 of the boys were taken to
the local hospital.
The local authorities are trying
to find anyone who has “approached” or “admired” the animal closely to limit
further spread of disease.
The occurrence, has become the
subject of mockery and ridicule among the population of the small town, has
also become a subject of fear and shame for parents who in the utmost secrecy
had their children vaccinated in case they had touched the animal.
In order to avoid the further
risk of spreading the disease, authorities have ordered the owner of the animal
to slaughter it.
